Website roundup

Website roundup
Luggage company Samsonite Canada has constructed a new website optimized for mobile electronic commerce. The site, located at <http://www.samsonite.ca>, was developed by Resolution Interactive Media of Toronto. In addition to online shopping, the site uses GPS data from a mobile device or IP detection from a desktop computer to locate the nearest retail store to the user. "Our plan for the rebuild included placing equal focus on selling online and helping consumers find their nearest Samsonite retailer," said Jonathan Kochis, a partner at Resolution. "The previous Samsonite Canada web overhaul resulted in double-digit sales growth simply by making it easy for consumers to find a store nearby."
